Questions that protect you without being difficult
What are the main options — and why is this option best for me?
A good plan includes alternatives and the reason the dentist prefers one pathway.
What is the treatment sequence — and what happens if we skip steps?
Sequencing is where many problems begin. Ask for a phased plan.
What are the main risks and compromises?
You’re not looking for perfection. You’re looking for honesty and realism.
